Coronavirus testing in the United States is disorganized and needs coordination at the national level, infectious disease experts say in a new report
Coronavirus testing in the United States is disorganized and needs coordination at the national level, infectious disease experts said in a new report released Wednesday.
Right now, testing is not accurate enough to use alone to make most decisions, including who should go back to work or to school, the team at the University of Minnesota said."It's a mess out there," Mike Osterholm, head of the university's Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy , which issued the report, told CNN."Testing is very, very important, but we're not doing the right testing.
Plus, there's not enough coordination to ensure that states have the testing supplies they need. This is a system and if a system breaks down anywhere, it breaks down everywhere," Osterholm said."What good are the test results if you can't trust them?"
